The Disputed Territories of Goldnation is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Bob Loblaw with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.489 billion Goldies are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belleville. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Goldnationian economy, worth 451 trillion bullions a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,490 bullions, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Public projects are synonymous with yawn-inducing conformity, turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, and lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Goldnation's national animal is the mongoose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Goldnation is ranked 2,547^th in the world and 66^th in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3,270.22 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
